"Pageonce BlackBerry is going to cost you much less. We're lowering the price of subscription from $4.99/month to $9.99/year -- a yearly saving of almost $50.
Now Pageonce's revolutionary personal internet assistant is available to BlackBerry users at the same low price as our iPhone application."
This has been my biggest worry - that BB Apps were priced far above iPhone. I know, it's all about volume and recovering development costs. But this is a good sign - price low and volume will come.
Makes me wonder if RIM is putting a cap on purchase prices for the App store.
Also makes me wonder if that cap extends to subscriptions.
The cap on the app storefront is 999$. They call them tiers and the last tier is 999$ i believe. I haven't logged into the storefront in like a week though.
yes DMG is correct the highest tier goes to $999 which is never gunna be reached unless somebody just wants to be an ***.
It might be used as a form of advertising. For example if you're able to sort the apps from Most Expensive to Least. If you choose 999$ it will be the most and a lot of people will see your item and read the description.
Although RIM is supposed to be doing quality control on all the apps so an app like that would just get denied I'm guessing.
So what do you think?
Should we expect comparable prices (or identical prices) on Apps on either platform (BB/iphone)?
Any examples of vendors with same price on each platform?
Any examples of vendors with different prices based on platform?
How many aps are even available on both platforms from the same vendor?
